CIMV Abort Method is used to halt any in-progress command, hold current position and return the operation mode to manual.

Signature:

Abort ( );

Method result codes are defined as part of the Call Service (see OPC 10000-4). They are described in Table 124 for ease of reference.

Comments

In manual operation mode (refer to 8.1.8), the Abort Method will try to cancel any active CIMV Move command and hold current position. If no Move command is in progress, the command will be ignored and return successful. In position or flow operation mode (refer to 8.1.8), the Abort Method will try to cancel any activity associated with the current operation mode, hold current position and set the CIMV to manual operation mode. The Method will complete when the command has been accepted. The abort operation may or may not have completed when the Method returns. The Method returns errors only if the operation cannot be started. The Client shall monitor the Moving Variable and the OperationMode Variable and, if provided, the CommandRejected Variables to determine if the Abort command was successful or failed
